# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must make
# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also customary to
# leave one space after the ':'.

gprolog: gprolog (produces native binaries from Prolog+constraint programs)
gprolog: 
gprolog: GNU Prolog accepts Prolog+constraint programs and produces native 
gprolog: binaries (like gcc does from a C source). The obtained executable 
gprolog: is then stand-alone. The size of this executable can be quite small 
gprolog: since GNU Prolog can avoid to link the code of most unused built-in 
gprolog: predicates. Beside the native-code compilation, GNU Prolog offers 
gprolog: a classical interactive interpreter (top-level) with a debugger. 
gprolog: The Prolog part conforms to the ISO standard for Prolog with many 
gprolog: extensions very useful in practice (global variables, OS interface, 
gprolog: sockets,...).
